Conrade:

Constance: 

-innocent...but not too innocent 

 ((red top) I liked this because it was unique.. different than other medieval gowns)

Queen:

-a bit darker, hints of promiscuity, I like the idea of the large collar

 

Lord:

-dark tones (ideally complimenting his wive's)

                

Duke:

-He's quite old and a bit aloof, I would like to see him in lighter tones. 

-Perhaps a long robe- he's old! He wants to be comfortable!

    

Herald :

-I thought these were unique.. not as stereotypical.  

Peasant (male): 

Peasant (female):
